What is the APC?

The Academic Policy Committee (APC) is the Tongass School’s governing board and is responsible for setting and implementing policies that fulfill the school’s charter. These activities include: hiring and reviewing the school’s principal, reviewing and amending the curriculum, instructional methods, and student assessment strategies, and approving the school’s annual operating budget.

The APC is comprised of three school staff members, three parents, and three Ketchikan community members at large who are elected by the school’s parents and staff during the spring student conferences.
